OUTLINE
Electric sunroof system consists of
Front door switches
Sunroof switch
Sunroof motor assembly
BCM (body control module)
BCM supplies power to the sunroof motor. Sunroof operation depends on sunroof switch condition.
OPERATION
Power is supplied at all times
through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box)
to BCM terminal 70, and
through BCM terminal 69
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 5.
With ignition switch in ON or START position, power is supplied
through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)
to BCM terminal 38.
Ground is supplied
to BCM terminal 67 and
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 7
through grounds M57, M61 and M79.

TILT UP OPERATION
When the tilt switch is operated for tilt up, ground is supplied
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 4
through sunroof switch terminal 4
through sunroof switch terminal 2
through sunroof motor assembly terminal 8
through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
Then, the sunroof will tilt up.
TILT DOWN OPERATION
When the tilt switch is operated for tilt down, ground is supplied
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 10
through sunroof switch terminal 6
through sunroof switch terminal 2
through sunroof motor assembly terminal 8
through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
Then, the sunroof will tilt down.
SLIDE OPEN OPERATION
When the switch is operated for slide open, ground is supplied
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 9
through sunroof switch terminal 3
through sunroof switch terminal 2
through sunroof motor assembly terminal 8
through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
Then, the sunroof will slide open.
SLIDE CLOSE OPERATION
When the switch is operated for slide close, ground is supplied
to sunroof motor assembly terminal 3
through sunroof switch terminal 1
through sunroof switch terminal 2
through sunroof motor assembly terminal 8
through grounds M57, M61 and M79.
Then, the sunroof will slide closed.
RETAINED POWER OPERATION
When the ignition switch is turned to OFF position from ON or START position, power is supplied for 45 sec-
onds.
The retained power operation is canceled when the driver or passenger side door is opened.
RAP signal period can be changed by CONSULT-II. Refer to RF-16, "
CONSULT-II Function (BCM)" .
MEMORY RESET PROCEDURE
If the battery is disconnected, or the sunroof motor harness connector is disconnected, the slide switch will
become inoperable and the sunroof motor memory must be reset. To reset the sunroof motor memory from
any sunroof position (full open, partially open, closed, partially vented, and vented), push and hold the sunroof
tilt switch in the forward (DOWN) position until the sunroof is fully closed. After it has closed all the way, push
and hold the tilt switch forward (DOWN) for more than 2 seconds to re-establish the motor preset position. The
sunroof should now operate normally.
INTERRUPTION DETECTION FUNCTION
The CPU (central processing unit) monitors the sunroof motor operation and the sunroof position (fully-closed
or other) by the signals from the sunroof motor.
When sunroof motor detects an interruption during the following sliding close operations, sunroof switch con-
trols the motor for open and the sunroof will operate until it reaches full open position.

CONSULT-II Function (BCM)EIS004VW
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II OPERATION
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication.
1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect CONSULT-II and CON-
SULT-II CONVERTER to the data link connector, then turn igni-
tion switch ON.
2. Touch "START (NISSAN BASED VHCL)".
3. Touch "BCM".
If "BCM" is not indicated, go to GI-39, "
CONSULT-II Data Link
Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
BCM diagnostic
test itemDiagnostic mode Description

for setting the status suitable for required operation, input/output signals are
received from the BCM and received data is displayed.
DATA MONITOR Displays BCM input/output data in real time.
ACTIVE TEST Operation of electrical loads can be checked by sending drive signal to them.
SELF-DIAG RESULTS Displays BCM self-diagnosis results.
CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR The result of transmit/receive diagnosis of CAN communication can be read.
ECU PART NUMBER BCM part number can be read.

During this test, CONSULT-II can be operated with ignition switch in "OFF"
position. "RETAINED PWR" should be turned "ON" or "OFF" on CONSULT-II
screen when ignition switch ON. Then turn ignition switch OFF for checking
retained power operation. CONSULT-II might be stuck if "RETAINED PWR" is
turned "ON" or "OFF" on CONSULT-II screen when ignition switch is OFF.
Monitored item Description
IGN ON SW Indicates [ON/OFF] condition of ignition switch.
DOOR SW-DR Indicates [ON/OFF] condition of front door switch driver side.
DOOR SW-AS Indicates [ON/OFF] condition of front door switch passenger side.
